local guide
Neighborhood tour leader
A local guide is someone with firsthand knowledge of a particular area who helps visitors navigate it.
The term applies to hired professionals leading tourists through cities or wilderness, but also to friends or acquaintances showing you around their neighborhood: My cousin was our local guide when we visited Rome.
Google Maps uses "Local Guide" for users who contribute reviews and photos of places they know.
